saw a psychiatrist today
    #14395630 - 05/03/11 05:54 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

i have physical anxiety issues that i wanted to see a dr for and possibly get prescribed something... i have no stressors in my life and no matter where i move i've had this problem, no matter if i'm working or not working. i personally believe i now have this problem because heavy drug use in previous years that probably fucked up my serotonin levels permanently. she was sitting there telling me about how that medication won't help, and I should practice stress reduction, and all this other stupid shit. one, i started meditation and yoga about.. 2 years ago. all my relationships are healthy. i eat right and exercise. NOTHING has helped. i'm trying to explain to her that I think I just have some kind of chemical inbalance. no.. she recommends group therapy.

i basically ended up telling her to go fuck herself :shrug:

gahh i hate dr's, it's such a luck of the draw thing. i'm almost positive a low daily dose of xanax would my tension/pain problems.

look up another Dr.  DUHHH.  There are thousands of doctors and psychiatrists out there.  I had one psych. that gave me 4mg of klonopin a day after our first session.  I've met tons of people whose doctors prescribed them oxycontin, xanax, opana, and all kinds of other benzos and painkillers for basiclally nothing.. sometimes for money.

don't get me wrong, I'm not recommending you find a corrupt doctor to get you addicted to benzos or narcotics.. but if this doc refuses to give you what you legitimately need, there are hundreds of other doctors in your immediate area who will prescribe you xanax or klonopin or whatever within 10 minutes of meeting you.

yeah except seeing more then one is kind of pain in the ass w/ my insurance, i'm gonna try another one next week and see if he's not stuck up in his own stupid shit and actually willing to listen to my concerns

this one's like..

"you know.. i have anxiety, could you tell?" i say no, because I've known her for 5 minutes "yeah, that's because I practice these stress techniques and go to therapy"

i wanted to falcon punch

To an extent it is a hit or miss thing with psychiatrists.  But first of all, no one likes being told what action to take in a field they're experienced in, especially if they've spent years of their life in school along with ungodly amounts of money to get a piece of paper saying they are experienced.  I'm not saying it justifies it for your psychiatrist, but it's true.  Secondly, if you even subtly mention the consideration of some kind of drug treatment of xanax's caliber on the first appointment you will almost certainly come off as a junkie trying to score. 

Keep this in mind if you decide to go see a different psychiatrist.  Be patient, and just let your doctor know what your feeling; what you've been trying to do to actively combat it, and don't be hostile.  You probably won't be prescribed anything your first appointment (It's almost become a rule). 

Hope you get the help you need.

Same thing happened to me when I went in to get my anxiety treated, I went in to my GP who Ive seen for 25 years, he has no knowledge of my drug history and both of my parents came in to the appt with me to attest to the fact that Im an anxious wreck all the time and basicaly afraid to go out in public.  I explain all this to him and my parents are confirming it all to him and the first words out of his mouth after Im done (he's looking at me with this disgusted look on his face) are "what do you want me to do about it?" and I said "I dont know you are the dr and thats why I came to you to ask for help, Ive never wanted to take medication but I cant go on living like this anymore" and he says in a shitty tone "well if you think your getting xanax from me you can just forget it" and after that I had enough and stormed out of the office loudly saying to my parents "see I told ya so that he was gonna treat me like a worthless junkie just because Im young and need medication". 

They stayed in the office trying to apologize while I waited in the waiting room and when they walked out they had an Rx that he wrote for 40 1mg lorazepam from him, he wrote it for no refills tho so it was pretty much useless.  I payed 150$ doctor visit out of pocket for 40 lousy mgs of ativan, I could of gotten 100mgs of xanax for that.  It worked out to my favor tho even tho he only wrote that 1 time only script because I just told my sub doc when I started with him that I have anxiety and asked "would it be ok to take ativan for my panic attacks my previous doctor had prescribed it for me" and he said ok and writes me 90 0.5mg lorazepam a month along with my subutex.  Its a small benzo script but at least its something for when I get to anxious.

Support groups and talk therapy are very helpful for many people - in fact I believe they have greater rates of reducing symptoms than medication.

You sound like you just want to take the easy way out.

I was nice about it at first, telling her I've tried all those techniques and nothings worked, but it's like she just completely ignored me, and that's when I started to get frustrated. I think to the average person I don't appear a junkie at all.. and I'm not, I haven't done drugs of any kind in almost 2 years :lol:

Like I said I really don't give a fuck about any high from the pills, I just want my body to chill out. This all started after about 3 weeks of ecstasy/DXM binges.. not advised.

That may be but doctors shouldnt discriminate on people because of age and base that on who gets the meds and who doesnt.  It pisses me off how I cant get switched from ativan to xanax or klonopin which would work better for me but if some 40 something fat housewife walks into the dr she will leave with 90 2mg xanax a month with little to no effort whether she needs them or not.

Yeah this drug war/culture shit really annoys me sometimes.

Like you said, if you're over 30 you can have an entire fucking pharmacy prescribed to you.

So basically you want some benzos/opiates to mask the damage done to your serotonergic pathways by excessive use of classical and RC psychedelics?

and the dr didn't prescribe you any so you told her to go fuck herselves

:haha: sorry but you're kind of a fag that cant deal with his own shit :feelsbannedman:

Just keep on snorting 2c-t-7 and all will be FINE :mypleasure:

In retrospect you might regret that mindset. Benzo addiction is fucked man their claws run so deep it's ridiculous. Your psychiatrist was right imo.

Yeah except I've never done an RC and haven't done any drugs in about 2 years :lol:

And this isn't about not prescribing, it's about the doctor's failure to actually listen to his patient and instead project his own health and previous situations onto me, and failing to do her job correctly. You're not too smart are ya??? :laugh:

Because every single person whose ever taken a Benzo becomes addicted,

I can control my shit. I'd rather be addicted to Benzo's anyway then be in constant pain like I am now :shrug:

Word I hate how everyone on here has this "its for your own good" attitude when it comes to someone wanting to take benzos for anxiety.  Ive been taking benzos for anxiety for 5 months and I am not addicted.  I run out early and take a few more than Im supposed to but I dont have any physical dependance and go days without them all the time.

wait did you ask her specifically for xanax or a benzo?

that would explain her bullshit

she might have thought you were just tryin to get drugs. I know lots of doctors try have a protocol they try to follow where they try everything before finally giving you the drugs you needed all along. even if you've already tried those things on your own and they havent fixed the problem.

No, I just told her that I have tried anxiety control methods for months and nothing has helped, and that I feel that maybe it's a chemical imbalance in my brain, and that maybe a medication that could help relax my body so I could get more fulfilling sleep would probably help...

HOW ABOUT GROUP THERAPY!??!!#?!

well if its anxiety, then of course its a chemical imbalance in your brain. But that doesnt mean group therapy wont help. but i see where your coming from. if it could be fixed without medication you'd think two years of meditating woulda done it.
